Great upgrade for me
I turned in an iPad mini 2 and '12 model 17.3" Samsung laptop for this beauty. I couldn't have made a better choice in my upgrade and purchase. As a full-time employee in Accounting, full-time student, mom, and wife... It's helpful in more ways than I thought it would be. The sleek style of a tablet-laptop that was accompanied with stylus as well as an expandable slot for memory, USB port and all the necessities of programs and memory packed into such a portable, lightweight and diverse piece of technology is all worthwhile for my bucks. I'm very, very satisfied and would definitely recommend to anyone who is a multitasking and gadgety person. You won't be disappointed.

Great buy, won't be dissappointed
I was torn whether to get the Surface 3 or Surface pro 3 for what I typically do. My laptop crapped out and I needed to replace it but wanted it to be tablet sized which is why I considered the Surface 3. Glad I saw this as price was a factor, and Since I had some rewards bucks to use as well, brought the cost way down and I got a very capable device for not too much. A con would be the charging cable, but not a deal breaker. The kickstand being able to have infinite positions is amazing for so much that I do I work and the pen is very accurate and useful. Getting the keyboard is a must and I wish they just included it in the price since 130 is pretty steep. I would recommend this to anyone on the fence, can't beat it for the price.

Handy tablet-laptop on the go for a gadgety lady
I turned in an iPad mini 2 and 17.3" Samsung laptop, because I wanted something more portable, just as lightweight (or close to it), thin (for quick movement and some flexibility), something to hold interest in my leisure/play as well as carry power for my work in financials and academic studies, and sheik ☺️ I got all of what I wanted, needed, desired and more in my Surface Pro 3. With the detachable keyboard, a handy stylus (when needed, which is often for me with/without my keyboard because I wear my nails long, lol), the slot for expandable memory (although I have a 128gb on the Pro 3), and just the option to move about freely atop of being able to carry in even my nicest/basic handbags really adds quality over quantity with the purchase. I was a little apprehensive about the buy at first, but after the Best Buy rep (in store) answered all my questions (even the quirky ones lol); even fulfilled all my requests of the purchase down to an having a box without dents (quirky). Best buy ever (little word play there ☺️). Thanks BB
